Join Us Today to Empower and Support Your Growth

 IEPC brings together groups of LGBTQ youth and young adults throughout the Inland Empire region to hold space for one another and develop in their roles as community leaders.

Become a Sponsor

We are excited to invite you to become a valued sponsor of the Inland Empire Prism Collective! Your support will help us continue advocating for LGBTQ rights, creating safe spaces for youth, and promoting inclusivity throughout the community. Together, we can make a lasting impact.

 

Becoming a mentor with the Inland Empire Prism Collective is a unique chance to grow both personally and professionally while making a difference in someone’s life. As a mentor, you’ll not only support LGBTQ youth, but you’ll also build valuable skills like leadership, communication, and empathy. It’s a rewarding experience that helps you gain fresh perspectives, build deeper emotional intelligence, and form lasting connections within the community. Watching your mentee grow and thrive will bring you a sense of fulfillment and pride, knowing you’ve made a lasting impact. Mentoring is a journey of mutual growth—helping others while empowering yourself. Ready to get started?
